How do you make friends when you're 30+?

[Vod]

This is unfortunate because if there was ever a emergency with my family and I was not home I dont think I could rely on them to call the authorities if I need their help.

How would your neighbors know you needed help if you weren't home? 

You make friends the same way as when you are young; common interests.  By thirty, you've usually decided what your interests will be, removing the majority of potential friends you could have going forward.   You also no longer hang out with people your exact age during the majority of the day either.

End result is, you have to do more work that just catching the eye of another person and saying "Dude! right??"  Join communities that share all your interests, not just specific financial ones.   Get to know your neighbors - I received lots of first hand information of an audit that took place from a neighbor of a ponzi scammer.

I have no friends haha

In fact, it all depends on your mood, if you have a good mood, if you do everything right, try to show your best qualities, then friends will appear by themselves.

Even though it seems daunting, making friends in your thirties is an essential.,Here's how to go about it.
Tap friends of friends.
Compliment someone.
Be consistent.
Use an app.
Get real real fast.
Reconnect with old friends.
Keep your expectations low.

Looks like your advice does not focus in making friends in 30's instead that deserves in making friends in general?

Compliment someone.
Be consistent.

But all of those i think this is the Best and accurate towards the discussion.

I have the same problem actually. I moved to a strange place since I started considering living near my wife's family. Her father demanded her be near them so she can take care of him, the father just sits in a wheelchair all the time. I never know some neighbor and the only i know are the guys I hired to fix faucets and the nearby grocery store guys.

I began making friends when I go with my kid going to the park every afternoon to play with the rest of the kids in the neighborhood. One day an invite to a gathering and started to have more friends. The school of my kid also introduces me to parents I can talk to. Not the kind of friends you will have when you are back in your hometown but yes it would work that you can have a beer with them sometimes.

Everything starts like that make but eventually we will use to it.

I have been in that same case back then , and yeah we are both a visitor in our wives territory but now ? after long years ? it feels like this place is also mine.

Just be yourself and never pretend to be Good when the truth is not.

People will like you for what you are and not for what you wanna be.

You sure that you have no friends? I don't believe you. How about your relatives, don't you consider them as your friend aside from being a relative of yours?

Looking for a friend isn't about impressing others. I agree to reatim that you just have to be true to yourself.

Really hard.
I thing until 30 everybody must have some serious and real friends until this age.
If I need to search for new friends in this years it will be pretty hard for me.. probably impossible..
I even don't know where to meet them My friends are my friends from childhood and school and collage. There is nobody who I have met recently and to be friend with him..

That's for sure. I also have no new friends, except for old friends. And I don't even know where to look for them. Well, probably you need to start with travel. For example, collective trips to the forest, mountains. Trips to the sea, group trips to historical sites. In short, where there are a lot of people who also do not mind meeting someone.
